I think moderators are sort of spooky. If it is just a matter of "breaking news" categories, that is quite simple. However, I have heard some posters on some threads that they think they are self-appointed thread police. Such activity does diminish the mission statement of Jim Robinson. And if a topic is posted that is part of the dialogue of current politics, those articles should not be pulled, as some, of late, have been.

Take a look at some of the prior threads for reasons posts are pulled. Mostly the participants make that decision, not us. We can not oversee, nor do we want to, every post.. but when flame-wars break out and things get nasty, we would rather pull the entire thread than spend time trying to sort out who made the most egregious posts and who started what. We don't have time for that.

Keep dialog civil and something you would not be ashamed to have young children read, and our job of pulling posts would disappear.
